Chengang,

Actually I'm studying Classical Chinese, and we had similar stuff in our lessons, likes Zhang Liang Lun, or some other I can't remember.

Now trying to translate it is a pain. Heh. Besides, I have to translate another text till the end of the month, as my final exam :)

Hey, Pete.

Thanks a lot for this. I myself am currently studying Classical Chinese as well, so I can really relate, and it can help me in my studies, so thanks a lot, and I hope to see many more of these :)

Posted on: More Chinese lessons, and now EnglishPod!

I truly hope that, as the description says, there will be more language Pods I can shake a stick at soon enough. Heh.

I mostly anxiously expect Germanpod and Japanesepod.

As for Englishpod, I checked it out already and it seems quite a good approach, but since English is also a language of Britain, Australia and the like, I do hope that there will also be points of reference to these variations of English as well. Either way, although I consider myself a fluent speaker, I think I might also learn a thing or two when the upper-intermediate and advanced lessons appear :)

Other than that, you're all doing a great job, and I'm so glad I have this tool to help me study foreign languages, and only regret I didn't have it 4 years ago when I only started studying foreign languages. Heh :)

I heard about Wuhu. When I was thinking about checking out China and searching where I could study Chinese, this was one of the first result, so I searched a bit about it.

I heard that there's a new mall there that doesn't have much business, since most citizens of Wuhu don't have that much money... is that true?

Posted on: When will he return?

Same here. Although I liked this lesson. I really enjoy these "Saved by the Gong" lessons. Lots of new expressions and vocabulary concerning different subjects :)
